When children get sick, the younger they are, the more difficult it is to identify the symptoms in time and accurately. Because children develop rapidly and develop rapidly, and there is particularity in diagnostic methods, it has been said since ancient times that "I would rather look at ten men than one woman. I'd rather look at ten ladies than play with children." In terms of childhood asthma, there are many confusing diagnoses, such as colds, pneumonia and other pulmonary inflammation, pertussis, and so on.

The most difficult to identify is the infants and young children, because the resistance is very low, the disease changes rapidly, and because of all kinds of objectivity, the infants can not seek medical treatment in time, so it is easy to miss the best diagnosis and treatment time for children's asthma, and bring a lot of fog to the diagnosis. In colds and various lung diseases, most of them will have common symptoms such as cough, shortness of breath, chest tightness, wheezing, dyspnea and so on.

There is a common phenomenon of asthma, that is, it is more severe at night and early in the morning, while colds are lighter in the morning. Childhood asthma is the same as adult asthma, and every type of asthma can occur, such as variant asthma with cough. not only family members and other relatives are difficult to identify, but also may be ignored and misdiagnosed by some doctors. Therefore, in the diagnosis of cough in children, we should pay attention to whether there is a history of allergic asthma in the family.

Cough-based variant asthma, patients with unexplained cough, ineffective treatment with antibiotics, cough lasting more than a month, less sputum, aggravating cough after exercise, but no infectious causes and diseases in life, if the patient is allergic, if you have ever suffered from eczema or allergic rhinitis, parents and other relatives should consider children's allergic asthma.

The similarity and mutual influence between cold and asthma are even more harmful to children. When there are runny nose and sneezing in the symptoms, you should pay close attention to the treatment of colds. If the child obviously has a chicken-like sound in his breath, he should see a doctor in time, otherwise it will cause the child's asthma to develop into a serious period such as sitting and breathing, sweating, and gray complexion.
